The survivor, whose name was Titilayo, said that they begged the BRT bus driver to stop until the train went by, but he wouldn’t.
Speaking to journalists, she said;
“The incident happened around 7.15am. When we got to the intersection at PWD in Ikeja, the driver continued driving. Passengers inside the bus, including myself, begged him to wait for the train to pass before crossing, but he didn’t listen.
“Midway, just before he could finish crossing the rail tracks, the accident happened. Many of us were rushed here, while five others were taken to Gbagada General Hospital.”
